Shelby has announced a new limited edition Cobra for the company’s 60th Anniversary. Shelby has limited this exclusive Cobra Diamond Edition to just 10 units and each car will get a unique carbon fiber body that weighs just 88 pounds. Yes, that’s not a typo.
Shelby Cobra Diamond Edition : More Details
Shelby has developed this car together with Classic Recreations. If you remember, Classic Recreation is the same guy who came out with the full carbon fiber Mustang GT500CR in 2021.
The 88 pound body includes front and rear clips, doors and floors. The engine bay is spacious and can accommodate a 3rd Gen Coyote V8 from Ford Performance. The designers also left room for the T56’s six-speed manual gearbox.
To boost this car up to 800 HP, buyers must also get the optional VMP Supercharger kit. Engineers have also upgraded the brakes on the 800 HP Cobra. The car now gets braking power from six-piston Wilwood brakes at the front and rear.
A select group of designers and engineers at Classic Recreations will assemble the Shelby Cobra Diamond Edition. This car will also get a unique serial number ranging from CSX4521 to CSX4530 from Shelby Licensing.
Shelby Cobra Diamond Edition Price
The Diamond Edition will refund potential owners a US$1.2 million call. This price is before the various options. However, given the limited range and uniqueness of the car, we hope it will sell out in no time and owners will be lucky enough to own this rare car.
